THE 20 per cent discount given to clubs matching bids for father-son and Academy prospects is under review by the AFL.

The League has told clubs it is assessing the discount, and whether it should be slashed or increased in coming seasons.

Finn’s up: Ex-Tiger Des Ryan won Frankston’s best and fairest in 1994 and captained the Dolphins. Now his son Finn, 18, is training with the club. He’s also a chance to play at the Sandringham Dragons as a 19-year-old. He’s a nice prospect. 🐬

We'll likely also have to match bids for Ethan Baxter, possibly Will Dwyer and maybe even Kyden Atkinson... :shh

Will is Zach's older brother:

...you're right about Atkinson...he played with Zach in the Boomerangs, seems I got the brothers mixed up too... :shh :shh

Achoung Agog (KPF) is the other potetential NGA prospect for next year,,,,doubt we'd have to matxh any bids for him at this stage though... :shh :shh :shh
